Feud For Thought

By Martyn Hill & Ben Simmons

Ben and Martyn got made redundant. They decided to put their heads together and be creative. The trouble is that they spend a lot of time disagreeing! So this became their ‘thing’. They want to know what you think about the random topics that they review.
Nothing is off limits, nothing is particularly structured. But it is entertaining. And it is not always their own points of view they argue with. Comment and suggest topics via @feudthoughts on Twitter.
